Here is a video some of my Leadership and Management students might like. In seminars I talked about Michelle Ryan and the glass cliff, so here is a small clip of both!

📢 Gender equality can't be achieved by women alone! With men representing 70-80% of executive positions in organisations and 60% of people managers, male allyship is key in furthering #genderequality and building an inclusive work culture in which women feel empowered. That's why we conducted a survey last year with the goal of understanding how men engage in our networks to advance gender equality, and the resources they need to become better allies. 🤝 Read the results 👀 https://lnkd.in/e4fSH-3K

More crucial than ever to push for gender equality.

Achieving gender equality and ensuring women’s rights is the only way to secure prosperius economies. Invest in women: accelerate progress

With the election of two female Presidents in Mexico and Iceland, the total number of Women Heads of State and Government rises to 30. At the current rate, gender equality in the highest positions will be reached in about 130 years. The Council of Europe has launched its Gender Equality Strategy (2024-2029). It is structured around 6 thematic objectives addressing existing and emerging challenges, one of these is : achieving balanced participation of women and men in political, public, social and economic life. https://lnkd.in/gazcA94f

Women are a driving force in promoting green mobility and transport! Despite their innovation, leadership, and dedication, women remain an untapped resource for the green transition in transport. Sustainable transport must work for all!  The Gender Equality Index 2023 focuses on the socially fair transition of the European Green Deal : 'Towards a green transition in transport and energy'.  The results of EIGE's Gender Equality Index 2023 are published here: https://lnkd.in/eQYmPbWr # WomenInTransport #DiversityInTransport 

Can cooperatives become the spearhead in the promotion of gender equality? Why is relational practice at work, which is more typical of women, considered invisible? How has the integration of women in the labour market evolved? How can we reduce the gender gap? On the occasion of #InternationalWomensDay, we invite you to read the contributions of our team to further reflect on the gender perspective as a key element for our competitiveness ➡️https://labur.eus/VLbCE Jabier Retegi Albisua Maddalen Alkorta Elzo Naia Begiristain Etxezarreta Carme Vallverdú Vergé Universidad de Deusto Deusto Research

UN Women has just released the "Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals: The Gender Snapshot 2024" report, offering a clear view of where we stand on gender equality and the steps still needed to close the gaps. From education to economic empowerment, the report highlights the critical areas that demand urgent action. We often receive questions from our clients about the connection between sustainability and gender equality. This report is a valuable tool for sustainability leaders to assess progress and identify key areas for driving meaningful change: https://lnkd.in/gRTUjvWs #GenderEquality #SDGs #GenderSnapshot2024 #UNWomen #EqualityMatters

My work with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is guided by a vision to create a world in which women, babies, and girls can thrive.   This vision is driven by insights I receive from my incredible team and the partners we support, such as Equal Measures 2030, which has published its latest index tracking global progress on gender equality—looking across the SDGs.    The evidence is clear: gender equality lies at the heart of durable and catalytic progress on development. But if current trends continue, global gender equality won’t be achieved until the 22nd century—and the global goals will remain out of reach.    Explore the data here and below: https://lnkd.in/gCvppFtW

The SDG Gender Index published by Equal Measures 2030 shows that if current trends continue, we won't achieve gender equality until the 22nd century.
